Nobody that I know has ever said this is a heaven or hell issue. It's just a standard.

but you won't be used in our local church

to stop some one preaching the word of God because of facial hair goes against the very commandment Jesus gave me, you and your church.

infact your comment is so overboard cause now you placed limits on the gospel itself. That very line tells me that if Christ a jew who was forbidden to trim the edges of his beard walked into your church,He would not be allowed to preach or be used in your church.

The very same man you preach about wouldnt be used in your church. (hypocrits)

It doesnt have to be a heaven or hell issue, but ignorant men has made such things a issue of so importance that one could not use or fullfill his )GOD-GIVEN talents in your church)

Ill definatly go overboard cause this house rule of stupidty is what it is.

Its legalism, Paul would say who has bewitched you? Why are you accepting traditions of men.

Me this stuff goes deep cause this was the issue I had dealt with. I have had facial hair ever since i could grow it. Very few times would i shave. My facial hair is apart of me just as much as the hair on a womens head is part of her glory. and to have some man say that you cant be envolved because you have facial hair is pharasical.


how can a man get behind a pullpit and preach freedom in Christ yet feel in bondage to man made standards he had to bend to in order to preach...

Come out of that bondage brother, no such house rule ever exited in the bible nor should it be acceptable
